Software for medical devices is always expensive. However, they are in the range in terms of price. I never bought software though I have made some comparisons for my customers. As a consultant, I have made some proposals, so I do not get myself to ask the purchase departments to request an offer. I do not remember exactly the prices, but it really depends on the parameters taken into account. In the case of another company, Polarion requested 1,00,000 for the on-premise version and 10,000 for license updates. So it isn't easy to compare things.

Polarion is average for the market. It's about the same as Integrity, but the price wasn't our primary concern. It was more about functionality. Our parent company already had a contract with Siemens, so we use the licenses through them. We get a cross charge, but I'm not sure how it adds up.

Our license for Polarion ALM is yearly. And it's not the cheapest tool that we've looked at. So if we had made our decision purely based on the licensing cost, we wouldn't have selected Polarion. Like most tools of this kind, there are maintenance costs and support contracts, etc. We're also looking to purchase a different license for other plugins that add features Polarion doesn't support or do right. If the vendor doesn't plan to improve on those features, we'll look for a third-party solution for that. So all of these costs are added on top of it.
The world’s first 100% browser-based ALM enterprise solution, which enables seamless collaboration across disparate teams, multi-directionally linked work items, full traceability, accelerated productivity and automated proof of compliance.
It is an expensive product. After using other tools, Polarion ALM seems to be very expensive.
You have to pay around 50-60 euros per user.

The solution offers a good balance between price and performance.
The solution is expensive.
I don't have information on the price of Polarion ALM because it was the customer who purchased it.

It's a pretty expensive solution. It's one of the most expensive solutions out there.
The license model is okay for large companies but would be quite expensive for smaller enterprises.
